…the agents had demanded to ride along in the ambulance en route to the hospital. The driver replied that without arrest paperwork, they were not permitted to ride along. Agents continued to insist that the vehicle would not be allowed to leave until an officer was permitted to accompany them.
“I repeated again,” the driver said in their report, “that no officer is permitted to ride in the ambulance and that they can meet us at the hospital and that we needed to be let out of the facility. Officers then began walking away from me whenever I spoke. At that point, a group of 5-8 civilian-dressed men walked into the garage and just stared at me. No identification on any of them. I walked back to the ambulance and got into the driver’s seat. I flipped the emergency lights on and put the car into drive. I inched forward slowly out of the garage.”
A man described as being in civilian clothes and a neck-wrap then stepped in front of the vehicle and ordered the ambulance not to leave, according to the report. As more agents amassed about 15 feet in front of the vehicle, the driver assumed they were preparing to escort the ambulance off the property and continued to slowly inch the vehicle forward. But agents continued to obstruct the ambulance’s path. As of 9:39, a dispatch report said there were “50-60 fed agents completely blocking the road.”
At this point, the crew member in the passenger’s seat exited the vehicle to attempt to reason with the officers. After putting the vehicle into park, the driver began to exit as well. They said that as they opened the side door, “I looked up and suddenly the entire group of officers… were crowded around the open car door, some of them leaning forward towards me, inches from my face.”
The driver recalls that an agent “pointed his finger at me in a threatening manner and began viciously yelling in my face, stating, ‘DON’T YOU EVER DO THAT AGAIN, I WILL SHOOT YOU, I WILL ARREST YOU RIGHT NOW.”
I don’t think many people realize a lot of medics are young, like this is their first job, and they’re still pretty much kids. Yes they do amazing work, yes I and many others are tremendously grateful, but trying to simply help someone medically and doing the cops job is a ridiculous notion.
Theres that Israeli training american “law enforcement” officers are so famous for taking. Along with their fame for not being required to understand the law at all and US law enforcement not hiring anyone with too high of an IQ.
The most surprising thing about US cops is how many tv shows there are that make them look like hard working, intelligent heros who just care about the community and have a deep sense of honor. Frickin joke.

Time for hundreds of gun owners to show up at these protests.
They never show up for anything, except to strut around playing billy badass. They are completely useless LARPers

I think we’re more at the point where they should be getting arrested by local cops. It says a lot that local cops are defending them instead.
Saying “I will shoot you” is illegal, no matter who you are. It doesn’t matter if they work for ICE, the FBI, the local police, or McDonalds; they should be arrested if they say that.
They’re eager nazi Gestapo, they shouldn’t be reentering society at all, and fuck them if they think I want tax payer money supporting their life sentences - a guillotine for each of them, after a fair trial of course.
They act just like the Gestapo during naziregime: use exessive force, followvtheir hunches and will not be held accountable
I don’t get the logic of slowing down with people in the way. You’re in a heavy ambulance, they’ll move.
Tell me you’ve never been a professional driver without telling me.
You’re in an ambulance, it’s your job to pick up the pieces. WTF are you on.
Well, if you go faster than they can move, you maim or kill them. Slowing down and keeping moving is how you get them to move. And although ICE may deserve what they get, an ambulance driver is probably not into hurting people with the ambulance.
ICE is a terrorist organization ran by a criminal.
Water is wet.
Correct, but the other statement needs to be repeated non stop
The national shitbag registry needs to be kept by whatever unions manage EMTs . These officers need to identify themselves just so their names are placed on the list and their captain can begin negotiating so that their families and home EVER get protection from fire, ambulance or cops again.
Until then, NO identified ICE member or their family gets support. Identify yourselves to distinguish yourselves or all face the same penalty. This is a targeted labour strike.
(Similarly, anyone impeding a real emergency vehicles gets on the list until a formal written apology replaces it in the file)
You do not impede real emergency vehicles just because you need to beat up and kidnap brown people.
I do like the idea of a National Shitbag Registry, so when these people move to a new neighborhood they have to go door to door warning the neighbors that they are a registered shitbag.
Shooting anyone will send them straight to jail. They’re carrying weapons at their own risk.
I cant tell if this is sarcasm but that fully isnt true in america. They can and will just kill you and say you were threatening them. They literally shot a lady and left her for dead like 2 weeks ago
qualified immunity.
means they 100% allowed to whatever shit they want.
if it has never been done before, then due to lack of precedent they didn’t know it was illegal. and therefore no legal punishment
and if they do it again, due to precedent they have to use the punishment they used last time (no punishment)
it’s dumb, but that is how the system works in this shithole
QI is illegal according to the law as written and as passed, not as illegally amended.
I don’t blame the 1982 SCOTUS. I don’t think they had any reasonable suspicion that the congressional record and federal register don’t match.
Trust me, i am fully aware
every time I explain it. I still doubt that, no system could be so stupid.
but it is.
if it was in a comedy it would be too stupid to be accepted by the audience. yet here we are
Literally even the producers would be like, “thats way too unbelievable and uncreative”
